Work done by a force is given as the product of force and the distance moved by the force.

Work done is the product of force and the distance moved by the the force.

Work done = Force × distance

Thus, distance required by the 100 N force is given as:

Distance = work done/force

Distance = 1000/100 = 10 m

Distance to be moved is 10 m.

Force applied = work done/ distance

Force applied by the hoist = 500/2

Force applied by the hoist = 250 N

Distance moved in one push-up = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete after one push-up = 250 × 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete = 62.5 J

Distance moved by the force = 0 m

Work done = 500 × 0 = 0 N

Therefore, for work to be done, force has to move a distance.

The cylinder valve is open and the gas is collected and atmospheric pressure

jok3333 [9.3K]

Less gas will be collected because some of the gases will escape from the open cylinder valve.

Cylinders used to store carbon dioxide will have thicker walls than those of butane because of higher pressures.

<h3>What are compressed gases?</h3>

Compressed gases are gases which are compressed under high pressure in gas cylinders.

Cylinder valves are used to reduce the pressure of the compressed gases and in the process, some of the gas molecules escape.

Since the cylinder valve is open and the gas is collected at atmospheric pressure, less gas will be collected because some of the gases will escape.

Since, the carbon dioxide not liquefy under pressure compared to butane, the cylinders used to store carbon dioxide will have thicker walls than those of butane.

The river narrows at a rapids from a width of 12 m to a width of only 5.8 m. The depth of the river before the rapids is 2.7 m;

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

7.89 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Width of the river, b1 = 12 m

Width of the river, b2 = 5.8 m

Depth of the river, d1 = 2.7 m

Depth of the river, d2 = 0.85 m

Speed of the river, v1 = 1.2 m/s

Speed of the river, v2 = ?

Area of the river before the rapid, a1 = 12 * 2.7 = 32.4 m²

Area of the river after the rapid, a2 = 5.8 * 0.85 = 4.93 m²

To solve this question, we use a relation between the speed of the river and the volume of the river. We say,

Area1 * velocity1 = Area2 * velocity2, and when we substitute the values for each other we have

32.4 * 1.2 = 4.93 * v2

38.88 = 4.93v2

v2 = 38.88 / 4.93

v2 = 7.89 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the river after the rapid is 7.89 m/s

You have two contentious friends, Chris and Pat, and you’ve quickly discovered that they need you to resolve arguments they have

pshichka [43]

Answer:

v_average = (d₂-d₁) / Δt

this average velocity is not necessarily the velocity of the extreme points,

Explanation:

To resolve the debate, it must be shown that the two have part of the reason, the space or distance between the two points divided by time is the average speed between the points.

v_average = (d₂-d₁) / Δt

this average velocity is not necessarily the velocity of the extreme points, in the only case that it is so is when there is no acceleration.

Therefore neither of them is right.

A geologist sees a fault along which blocks of rock in the footwall have moved higher relative to blocks of rock in the hanging

Luda [366]

Answer: Normal fault

Explanation:

The type of fault that is explained above is a normal fault. We should note that normal faults typically takes place in a divergent boundary in a scenario where the crusts may have been pulled apart.

Since the crust is pulled apart in this case, it leads to the downward movement of the hanging wall which leads to the football being above the hanging wall.
